Tells the story of the rise and fall of Iowa's one-room schools, whose numbers fell from close to 15,000 in 1918 to only 1,100 in 1960, all of which had ceased to function as schools by 1980. This title introduces us to George Coleman, son of a local farmer and school board director, who kept a sparse diary between December 1869 and June 1870.
